Her current book project Debunk Me Not: Science and Romantic Feelingexplores the communities at the margins of normative science, whose belief supernatural belief systems were written out of Western modernity’s project of secularization in the 19th- and early 20th-twentieth centuries. She returns to the literature and supernatural testimonies of authors and figures such as Oliver Wendell Holmes, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Lydia Maria Child, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman, Henry James, Ella Cheever Thayer, Abraham Lincoln’s spirit-medium Nettie Colburn Maynard, W. E. B. Du Bois, Harry Houdini, and black clairvoyant physician and sex magician Pascal Beverly Randolph, among others. Combining science studies and queer approaches to norms, she shows how the exclusion of these modes from rationalist epistemologies of science and history are gendered, racialized, and a function of romantic feelings we have directed towards modern science and technology.
